V.N. Zlatarsky's essay on the Bulgarian history of the late 10th century stretches over two issues of M.P. The author examines historical sources about the era, when Bulgaria had been divided into an Eatern part (under Byzantine domination) and a Western realm which remained independent. This territory comnprised the region which we know today as Macedonie, South Albania, the Epirus mountains and Western Misia and its independence resulted from the urpise of Bulgarianb Boyards in 969 lead by the four brothers David, Moïs, Aaron and Samouïl. Zlatarsky focuses on the politics of Vassilii II., emperor of Byzanz, his attempts to reconquer the Westenr part of Bulgaria until the time, when Komitopoulos proclaimed himself Tsar of the Bulgarians.

In the article, the author discusses several important newspapers’ features which are of a special value to a linguist. It has been pointed out that newspapers are an irreplaceable source to the studies of thematic fi elds and lexical layers (special, vernacular, environmental). Particular attention has been paid to the process of borrowings’ polonization, especially Anglo-American. The most striking feature of the newest and latest borrowings excerpted from the press and Internet texts is their level of spelling variance. Press texts which shape public opinion through announcing and explaining current events and phenomenons, give linguists the ability to work out and improve study methods of text function, especially limits among their informative, persuasive and manipulative function.

The research on sex stereotypes in Nowy słownik poprawnej polszczyzny PWN shows that examples of word usage can be a very rich source material to this kind of analysis. In the article I tried to prove that stereotypic perception of a man and a woman and their roles in a family is still deeply ingrained in people’s thinking – even now when it is signifi cantly different from reality. Examples from the dictionary show that a woman’s domain is her private sphere and a man’s a public one. It is simplifi ed and somewhat misrepresented view of the world. Admittedly, one cannot expect from dictionaries to fi ght with stereotypes because that is not their role, but it is good to be aware of such a problem and try to minimalize it. I have reached for content and discourse analysis i.e. for methods from linguistics and social studies. They enable to study short, separate utterances as a uniform narration and show that there emerges a coherent, surprising linguistic portait of differencies between women and men. Trans. A. Gierba

The semantic and formal analysis of lexems and idioms in climbing dialect demonstrated that this local dialect develops on the boundary – it is partly environmental and partly professional. The aim of the research was to show the opposition of professional and non-professional vocabulary in rock-climbers’ dialect and to show professional lexis in nominative and communicative function and non-professional lexis in emotive function. The linguistic material was derived from spoken and written texts. The written texts come from Internet fora, websites of mountaineering clubs and subject literature whereas the spoken texts were gathered during talks with climbers. Trans. A. Gierba

The subject of the article are semantic neologisms present in paragliders’ sociolect, which is an example of new environmental variation of the Polish language. The author analysed noun semantic neologisms, which result from metaphorical use of the words in general language. Many of the described names one can recognize as metaphors yet stabilized, which are often the only defi nitions for objects and phenomenons. In case of some words, one can notice that the metaphorical process has not fi nished yet and can observe its transitory stage which precedes a complete record of a new meaning. Trans. A. Gierba
